Tethergeist Launches on PC and Nintendo Switch With 1-Screen Puzzle Platforming

3 articles · Updated · Kotaku · Jun 18

Tethergeist is now available on PC and Nintendo Switch, putting players in control of Mae, whose astral-projected spirit stays linked to her body by a tether.
That tether drives the platforming: Mae’s spirit can pass through hazards and crystals, then pull her body across, while yellow flowers, anti-projection zones and projection-triggered spikes deepen each 1-screen puzzle.
Unlimited lives and instant respawns keep the challenge forgiving even as wall-kicks, bounce mushrooms and launchers stack into tougher airborne sequences and optional hidden red flowers.
The game leans heavily on Celeste’s structure but adds its own hook through the tether mechanic, colorful art and a story centered on Mae proving her capabilities during a coming-of-age journey.
